New 29 gallon tank. In the process of fishless cycling. Info can be read here about the cycling.

I have 65 watts over the 29, and until yesterday I had about 5 plants. I do not have fish so have not been feeding so it is not rotting food.

I first noticed that the java moss had this white fuzzy stuff hanging off the ends, and then today I noticed that the top of my driftwood has this weird layer of white fuzzy stuff.

I do have snails (came on some plants apparently).

Any idea what it is and what I should do about it?

Thanks!!!

Oh that's typical for driftwood. It will eventually go away on it's own.
